![]() ![]() Maggie has worked for eight grueling months to put Caleb Becker and his inexplicable desertion behind her. It probably doesn't help that that's not how I picture either of them and that kissing under the moonlight by a lake (while it may happen in the book) just doesn't really encompass the whole of what's going on in this story. The cover of the sequel just doesn't measure up, in my opinion. The newer cover of Leaving Paradise struck just the right note, when it comes to the fear and pain and connection between these two characters. And I hadn't even read the first book yet! I have to say I'm not loving the cover, though. ![]() ![]() Naturally, snagging an ARC of Return to Paradise was pretty high up on my list of things to do at BEA. Honestly, I loved Maggie and Caleb so much that I savored the thought of them back on the page together, dealing with the awkward and ambiguous place they were unceremoniously left in at the end of the first book. I was so happily surprised (and intensely affected) by Leaving Paradise that I couldn't wait to start in on the sequel, the inevitably titled Return to Paradise. ![]()
